West Indies v Sri Lanka| June 28- 2013 | Sri Lankan Innings

Bravo wins toss and decides to bowl in the 1st game of the Tri Series featureing WI, SL and India
 
West Indies team
CH Gayle, J Charles, DM Bravo, MN Samuels, DJ Bravo*, KA Pollard, D Ramdin†, DJG Sammy, SP Narine, R Rampaul, KAJ Roach


Sri Lanka team
WU Tharanga, DPMD Jayawardene, KC Sangakkara†, LD Chandimal, AD Mathews*, HDRL Thirimanne, BMAJ Mendis, KMDN Kulasekara, HMRKB Herath, BAW Mendis, SL Malinga
 
Dont know why these guy rampaul keeps playing. best is in best form at the moment he is the best man aswell bowling very very quick
 
Decent start from mahela and SL on the other tharanga is struggling big time
 
Ramdin should not have been played , they could have played another batsman or all rounder instead.
 
Sl team is so boring to watch. Where is kushal perera?
 
Chandimal Again shown his class
U.Akmal is better Odi/T-20 player compare to SL Vince captain
both have same age
but U.Akmal is far better than Chandimal
 
Boring team lanka is even lost the swagger and flair with depature of jayasuria , kalu , aravinda
 
SL need at least 220 .. even that wont be enuf . but still some is better than nothing
 
220 looks difficult to me now lanks depends to much on dilshan , jaya and sanga these 3 are there main batters and pity 1 of them was not there today fell sorry for india .. indians will roast them

everytime a player who was compared with Umar fails, then automatically Umar becomes a better player.:)

Naraine bowling like a true No. 1 bowler....:14:

He's quality.

IMO West Indies should be bowling both Narine and Bishoo in ODIs. Go with their strength. Their spinners are formidable but their pacers are average.

Agree with you ...they both will form a very good bowling pair.
 
Poor Kula being treated so badly by Gayle...
 
A pointless series after the champions trophy. Can't believe the WI board preferred this over a test series against Pakistan
 
W.I 115/1 AFTER 20.2 OVERS

Charles out. awful batsmen and god knows why W.I are picking him!

Gayle looking beastly as usual.

Should be an easy win for W.I here.

Bishoo has really dropped off recently. Maybe CPL he can make a name for himself again

Was unfair really, guy was quality he looked really good. Then Narine did really well in IPL, thus was preferred and they haven't looked back on Bishoo. But Bishoo was performing to a a really high standard in LOI. Much better than guys like Sammy, Bravo even Roach and Rampaul.

He didn't take to tests instantly but neither did Narine.

It's just West Indies tradition to pack the team with fast bowlers and these all rounders. There are 3 specialist full time pace bowlers in the side (I'll count Sammy as a specialist). Then you've got two in Dwayne Bravo and Pollard. Why the hell do West Indies need more pacers/medium pacers? They've got five already in the team. And yet those five, no one comes close in terms of the performance of their one spinner in the team.
 
This shows that our upcoming series against the West Indies should not be taken lightly. Hopefully, West Indies continue to thrash the Lankans and then we thrash the Windies, thus improving our ranking.
 
He is not performing regionally at all. Gayle raped him in the last Caribbean t20 he made a century mostly off of his bowling. Shattered him. Not sure whats wrong. Maybe he has lost confidence . I agree the extra seemer isn't working for a long time now
